Battlefield Jim

Here's the deal; Jim Morrison never died. While on tour with the Doors in South America, he went out partying with some locals one night and they took him to the legendary Fountain of Youth. Upon his arrival back home he decided to leave the public eye and spend the rest of his life in the town of the Fountain of Youth. Jim moved down there with a bunch of friends where they spent years and years being youthful and merry. All was superb until the news program, "Wild on E!", did a show on the town. In the show they showed Jim jamming with his bar band and then overnight the town became one of the world's hottest spots.

At first the town's new tourism business was making everyone happy, but soon the mayor and the police realized they were powerless. Jim was the town's king shit and one of the few left who knew the location of the legendary Fountain of Youth. As the town begins to fill and the legend of Jim's youth grows and grows the aging mayor and police chief start making plans to fight Jim and win back their town. The problem is...they don't know how to fight Jim, he has too many friends and fans on his side. Then the town officials get a little help from an old colleague of Jim's, Ray Manzarek from the Doors. Dude is fucking pissed. Jim has been screwing him out of potential money for all these years, so Ray comes down to the town to sue the pants off of Jim. At first Ray goes directly to Jim, who just pisses on the lawsuit, but then Ray hits up a deal with the mayor and police chief. Jim is arrested, tried (HUGE INTENSE COURTROOM SCENE) and sentenced to jail. Fans start leaving the town and things begin to quiet back down.

Alone and depressed in jail Jim makes friends with his cellmate, a weird man named Paleo. Paleo explains he's in jail because the town's people were scared of him. Jim asks why and Paleo turns into a werewolf and begins gnawing on Jim's arm ( Thus begins Jim's amazing CG transformation into a werewolf) He and Paleo go into a full-on werewolf shit-tossing rampage. They break out of jail, kill the town's mayor and police chief, rape sheep, rape each other, eat a fuck load of Doors fans and then wind down by making love under the moon. The newly free werewolf Jim decides to celebrate and holds a huge concert in the middle of town. Everyone is there and loving it and after the show Jim and Paleo are chilling with some beers and smokes when Ray comes up and tries to shoot Jim. (word has gotten out about the werewolves, so yeah, silver bullets) Ray sucks though, he misses Jim but hits Paleo. Paleo is dying on the ground and Ray is about to blow Jim away, but Jim starts fast talking. They strike up a deal; Ray will let Jim live if he takes him to the Fountain of Youth and gets the band back together. They head to the Fountain of Youth with Jim rushing with his new lover Paleo to try and save his life. Jim, Paleo and Ray arrive at the Fountain and just before Paleo drinks from it an array of bullets fly through him and Jim. It's a young police officer who has been on their trail since they broke out of jail and killed his boss. Ray laughs at Jim's dying body and then goes to take a drink from the fountain, but the cop shoots him too because he doesn't want anymore hippies in his town.
